Change Kitchener's name back to Berlin?
#29

Now, if the Region amalgamated into one urban area a 'new' name might be appropriate.

I agree. I also concur that it's too late to revert back to Berlin as someone else posted. We really are looking for a new name for the combined region. This will likely happen though it might take another 20 years before people get used to the idea.
